Europe has been experiencing for several years an increase in migration flows. Project partner countries receive a large number of foreigners who sometimes have little or no command of the host country language.
Yet, knowledge of the national language is one of the most important criteria to search employment. A poor (or lack of) knowledge of the national language is an obstacle to finding employment.
The project’s objective is to create an online training platform to support migrants’ integration in their host country and foster their employability.
The platform will be specifically designed for migrants living in one of the 5 partner countries, regardless of their status, with a basic command of the host country language (levels A1, A2 and B1).
The platform will display different modules, each one composed of thematic units, corresponding to specific activities.
Exercises will be designed with a visual approach, using images, videos and short sentences, rather than long texts, and they will address topics related to social and cultural inclusion as well as labour market and work culture such as job offers (where to find them), how to apply for a job, work legislation, social manners, public holidays, recognition of skills, schools and nurseries, public transports.
Finally, an encouraging and interactive interface will be developed in order to reward users for correct answers and good performances.
